So I get the usual spam (I use outlook express) when I check my messages and begin deleteing all the junk email. Everything's fine until outlook highlights one paticular spam e-mail and it locks up.

I ctrl+alt+del and reload outlook and try again, but they same thing happens. Then I try again. This time selecting a block of emails around the one e-mail and hitting delete. The hourglass cursor appears for a minute and then disappears and nothing happens.

I run my anti-virus, but it doesn't pick up anything. So now everything runs fine except I have this undeleteable e-mail that I have to avoid landing on in outlook express.

Any suggestions? I have no idea how to get rid of it. Anyone heard of this happening before?

Thanks. That worked. I had to go in and delete the inbox file, which was a pain, but at least it's gone now.

Thanks again
